Ryken and Spurgeon: A Church for the City

Wednesday, January 31st, 2007

I have this love/hate relationship with the Reformation21 blog…have you noticed? Sometimes it infuriates me…and then it turns right around and challenges me in ways that deeply move me toward Christ and his Cross.
Very often, the latter occurs through the musings of Rev. Philip Ryken, senior minister of Tenth Presbyterian Church in center city (never [...]

Slippery Slopes and Sloshy Hermeneutics: Bauer, Phillips, and Evangelical Feminism

Thursday, January 25th, 2007

In the most recent issue of Books & Culture (both print and online), author and home school guru Susan Wise Bauer takes the opportunity of her review of John Stackhouse’s book Finally Feminist to respond to the sharp and sometimes alarmist criticisms that erupted across the Internet after she let out on her blog that [...]

Welcome to the Conn-versation

Thursday, December 21st, 2006

Sacred Journey has been peacefully slumbering for the past couple of weeks. I’m decompressing after final exams and a month of way-too-much drama at Westminster Theological Seminary. This is also the time of year when I like to re-evaluate the purpose and future direction of this blog, so I’m spending some time giving that some [...]

Reformed and Emerging Blogger in Conversation

Monday, December 4th, 2006

David Wayne (AKA Jollyblogger), with whom I once was delighted to have lunch at Westminster, has announced that he is going to be meeting face-to-face with prominent Emerging Church blogger Stephen Shields for conversation. Three cheers for both of them as they set out to prove naysayers who maintain there is no use for such [...]

Maybe Going Garver

Saturday, November 18th, 2006

For reasons that I cannot discuss here, this blog may be “going Garver” for a while.
If indeed this is my last post for a while, then goodbye. If you use a feed reader, keep me on it as I will probably be back eventually.

iMonk on TR’s and Lucke on Epistemlogical Humility

Saturday, November 11th, 2006

The Internet Monk attempts to explain and defend the label “TR”, and in a related post, Glenn Lucke of Common Grounds Online explains why “epistemologcial humility” is not only not a slippery slope (there’s that term again!) to theological liberalism, but rather ought to be a foundational attitude for those who stand within Reformed orthodoxy [...]

Doubt and Hope: Two SJ Friends Reflect

Saturday, November 11th, 2006

The other day Andy did something you are not supposed to do when you are a “successful Christian musician.” He publicly confessed struggling with serious doubt in his faith walk. The sudden upsurge in comment activity this generated on his blog seems to indicate that he is very much not alone, even among his audience [...]

Basic Blog Tools

Friday, November 10th, 2006

Hundreds of you loyal Sacred Journey readers (well, OK, just Justin, really) have asked, “Sage, how can I be an even more loyal Sacred Journey reader? I live in fear that while I stop to sleep or eat or use the toilet I might miss one of your posts. Would you please call my cell [...]

Garver Parousia! Film at 11!

Monday, November 6th, 2006

Joel Garver, after having “Gone Himself” once again a month or so ago, threatens to resurface. The blogosphere holds its collective breath, knowing this event is the only hope to knock the Haggard scandal off the top of the Technorati rankings anytime soon.
UPDATE: And this is why he’s always worth the wait.
By the way, Joel, [...]

An Emerging Church Evaluation of the WTS Emerging Church Forum

Monday, October 30th, 2006

Andrew Jones (TallSkinnyKiwi), perhaps the best known Emerging Church blogger in the world, posted his evaluation of our Student Association forum this past weekend after reading the lecture notes and transcripts posted on this blog and several others. We’re still hearing cheers and jeers from Westminster students (mostly cheers in my ears), but I’ve been [...]
